Thiruppavai-2

Vaiyathu vazhveergal!Namum nampavaikku,                                                                                                 seiyum kirisaigal kellero:parkadalul
 Paiya thooindra paraman adipadi
 neiyunnom palunnom ,naatkali neeradi,
maiyittu yezhudhom paalunnom ,malarittu naam mudiyom,
seithana seiyom theekuralai send rodhom ,
 Aiyamum picahiyum aandhanaiyum kaikaatti
 vuyumar eru yenni ugandhe lorembavai.

Meaning.

Inhabitants of this earth!Listen to the vows we are binding ourselves in this month long penanace.
we will praise the sacred feet of Brahman who is lying in meditative repose in the milky ocean.
we will bathe early in the morning every day and will avoid partaking ghee or milk.
Nor will we adorn our eyes with kajal nor deck our tresses with flowers,
we will not do all that which is prohibited ,nor will we carry tales about each other.
we will give gifts and alms as much as possible without feeling boastful or satiated at our own munificence,
And we will experience Bhagwaan in all things that makes our living possible ,
